After cutting their ties with Waering, Dane take the WetWorks team to an old Team 7 safe house where they can start fresh. As the team acclimates itself to their new surroundings, Grail reveals to Mother-One that he does not seem to be healing from his wounds at the hands of Dominus.
Activating the base seems to have alerted I.O., who are still following the path set by Miles Craven, even after their leaders demise.
As the team goes out to a carnival for some R&R, they are attacked by a team of Black Razors led by Dag, who is an old acquaintance of Dane's. In the attack, one of Dag's throwing blades manages to do something no one thought was possible, break through Grail's symbiote.
Armand Waering (the Jaquar) appears only on the cover of the issue.
